This signature detects a packet creating a denial of service in the RIM BlackBerry Server product. The communication between BlackBerry routers can be disrupted by sending crafted Service Routing Protocol (SRP) messages. A remote unauthenticated attacker can cause a denial-of- service condition of the BlackBerry service.
The Blackberry Enterprise Server Router component is prone to a denial of service vulnerability. This vulnerability may be triggered by sending malformed SRP (Server Routing Protocol) packets to the Router. This could only be exploited by an attacker who can communicate with the Router.
